("A son disgraces his father, a daughter rises up against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, a man's enemies are the people of his own house; the face of the generation is like the face of a dog, the son is not ashamed before his father. And on whom can we rely? On our Father in Heaven." - Sotah 9:15. Also: "And we shall cast our burden upon the Lord, for we have no one to rely on but our Father in Heaven; our eyes are turned to Him, until now Your mercy has helped us." - R. Natan in the introduction to Likutei Moharan. Also: "And the Name of Heaven will be sanctified in public and it will be seen that there is still a God who judges the earth, does justice and righteousness, and we have only to rely on our Father in Heaven and on the righteous of the generation whose very faith..." - Agnon, Elu v'Elu, The Advice, p. 271.
